No... I'm not angry at all. I just did my research into what actually happened instead of relying on the events fed to me by the original news media.

Zimmerman was a neighborhood watch captain. He saw suspicious activity and reported it. Trayvon saw that he was being watched and started to take off. Zimmerman started walking trying to follow him because in his words, "These assholes. They always get away." The 911 dispatcher asked if he was following him, Zimmerman said, "Yeah," to which the 911 dispatcher said, "We don’t need you to do that," which Zimmerman knew was obviously false since the earlier statement, "They always get away."

Early on the news media edited the 911 call to make it sound like Zimmerman was a racist. They showed the Young Trayvon photos to invoke deep emotions in people. The news media originally showed low-resolution videos of Zimmerman without injuries to the back of his head, and many said he made up the story of his head being slammed against the sidewalk. When the high resolution video was released, the injuries could CLEARLY be seen.

The news media released a set of witness 911 tapes featuring screaming. The media claimed it was Trayvon. Trayvon's mother claimed it was Trayvon... The screaming, admitted by Trayvon's father, was Zimmerman. Yet later, he recanted and said it was his son.

Witnesses and Trayvon's girlfriend have both been caught in lies.

If the news media had done some REAL investigative reporting then everyone would have seen it was a good shooting. Instead, they went for the emotional story that sold the best.

The bottom line is Trayvon put Zimmerman into a kill or be killed situation. When he sucker-punched Zimmerman and attacked him, there was only one course of action left to Zimmerman. Hence: Trayvon Needed to Be Shot

You should be able to verify any / all of this with Google. It is all out there. I'm just surprised reddit fell for the false story.

Note: With all that said, Zimmerman AND his god damn family deserve jail time. NOT for the shooting, but for trying to skirt the legal system. While I don't think he deserved to be charged in the first place, his wife and him tried to hide money, hide passports, planned to flee the country, lied under oath about financial resources (donations from people who watched the case and saw him being rail roaded), etc...

When all this is complete, I expect Zimmerman will be found innocent of murder, yet guilty of other crimes due to his high level of stupidity. I'm fine with that.
